Summary[]
7 years ago when Sakura Yui went berserk during Yamato’s experiment and destroyed the Japan branch of Nox, a Hiro clad in silver armour fearfully hid in the toilet while trying to ignore Sakura Yui’s pleas for help that meant for him to kill her. Abel then approached carrying an unconscious Yamato to marvel at Hiro being the invicible manifestation of human imagination despite his cowardice, and as a bastard sword appeared in Hiro’s hand, Abel told him that the world will be destroyed if he doesn’t stop Sakura Yui. After Hiro emphasised his refusal by throwing the bastard sword through several storeys, Abel declared that he will help out this time because of his acquaintance with Yamato, but such tragedies are destined to unfold again in future, where it will be up to Hiro to make a decision.
As these memories read from Hiro play out in her head, Violet Ella Wong Perez wakes to find herself on the hotel rooftop where Gang Daehyeop is facing off against Hiro. When she calls out for Gang Daehyeop not to fight Hiro because only he can kill the spider, Hiro makes a slash at Gang Daehyeop that cuts him despite the protection of his Charyeok and Shield Suit before electrocuting him. Edging out from the cover of the helicopter now that the Shadow agents are all down, Yamato tells Hiro he will only hand over the cure for Sakura Yui once he has safely escaped, only to have Violet reveal that he actually possesses no cure. As the former Elite Sheep names him a renegade Priest attempting to take over Nox, Yamato is warned of how Sakura Yui will react to being duped, before being told that only Hiro can kill her. Violet then informs a refusing Hiro that Sakura Yui herself already acknowledged this, thus by manifesting her death wish she generated the ghost that is him. Chatising Hiro for his childish denial that will get many people killed, Violet recalls that she had once believed in indiscriminately eliminating mankind for the good of the world until she met Gang Daehyeop.
Just when Violet pushes for Hiro to make a decision, she sees a shower of shooting stars descending onto where Sakura Yui stands triumphant over a black dragon. Meanwhile Ban Sihyeon helplessly laughs as all his monsters got vanquished, while Wilhelm who is holding him upright points out that the black aura surrounding Sakura Yui is protecting her from harm. Musing that he might have been able to win had he the time to prepare a well-designed Dungeon, Ban Sihyeon is about to release the seals on Wilhelm’s powers when he notices the shooting stars Sin Yunseong had summoned, which according to Wilhelm despite their inability to harm Sakura Yui are actually the prelude to the real thing.
It turns out that Sakura Yui’s true ability is to manifest her prayers, which made her generate Hiro who is the fantasy incarnation of a man without the ‘means’ to hurt her, with the Charyeok Succubus that cursed her to eat semen every day awakening afterwards. Recently as she starts losing faith in Yamato being able to remove her Charyeok, Sakura Yui commanded Hiro to kill her should she lose her mind again.
Violet reminds Hiro that he will end up killing innocent people if he doesn’t kill Sakura Yui, but just as she laments when Hiro insists on rescuing Yamato, a recovered Gang Daehyeop exasperated at his childishness goes into Super Hero Mode, before tripping Hiro over and smashing him down through the hotel’s 30 storeys. Hiro jumps back up in rage to slash at Gang Daehyeop, only to be directly hit by a punch infused with Charyeok. Violet realises that unlike his previous fights against humans where he just ignites his aura for defensive purposes, now Gang Daehyeop is using the power of his Charyeok for the offensive since his opponent is revealed to be an immortal ghost. Turning towards Yamato after smashing Hiro away, Gang Daehyeop uses his palms to parry against the flat of the bastard sword once Hiro recovers and counterattacks. Then grabbing the bastard sword to stop its overhead slash, Gang Daehyeop endures lightning, fire and ice while berating Hiro for his spinelessness when faced with Sakura Yui’s pleas for help. Getting beaten onto the floor again, Hiro conjures ice to freeze Gang Daehyeop’s legs in place before jumping up to hack down at his head, only to have Gang Daehyeop break free and uppercut him with Charyeok.
As Hiro with his weapon and armour pulverised struggles to recover from such a powerful strike, Gang Daehyeop explains to him that being the only one who can kill Sakura Yui also means that only he can save her. Admitting defeat now that his powers obtained from Sakura Yui are spent, Hiro suddenly gets struck by an Injector Gun before being shot in the head by a bullet.
